Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: the image stream signature controller in the openshift controller manager deployment makes direct http/https requests to registries accessed by imagestreams, and the openshift controller manager was not being set up to deal with global proxies Consequence: global proxies were not properly utilized by the image signature controller in the openshift controller manager Fix: the openshift controller manager operator now seeds the openshift controller manager with the proxy environment variables and ca certificates needed to properly communicate with openshift global proxy Result: the image signature controller now leverages openshift global proxies correctly when contacting external registries

Description Christophe Fergeau 2020-02-20 12:11:31 UTC
I'm using a test cluster (4.3.0-0.nightly-2020-02-17-205936) on AWS with a proxy configured:

$ oc get proxy cluster -ojson
{
    "apiVersion": "config.openshift.io/v1",
    "kind": "Proxy",
    "metadata": {
        "creationTimestamp": "2020-02-19T11:12:28Z",
        "generation": 1,
        "name": "cluster",
        "resourceVersion": "427",

        "uid": "8f210775-bf6a-46fc-948b-b4934396de96"
    },
    "spec": {
        "httpProxy": "http://proxy-user1:JYgU8qRZV4DY4PXJbxJK@ec2-3-16-66-156.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com:3128",                                                                                              
        "httpsProxy": "http://proxy-user1:JYgU8qRZV4DY4PXJbxJK@ec2-3-16-66-156.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com:3128",                                                                                             
        "noProxy": "test.no-proxy.com",
        "trustedCA": {
            "name": ""
        }
    },
    "status": {
        "httpProxy": "http://proxy-user1:JYgU8qRZV4DY4PXJbxJK@ec2-3-16-66-156.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com:3128",                                                                                              
        "httpsProxy": "http://proxy-user1:JYgU8qRZV4DY4PXJbxJK@ec2-3-16-66-156.us-east-2.compute.amazonaws.com:3128",                                                                                             
        "noProxy": ".cluster.local,.svc,.us-east-2.compute.internal,10.0.0.0/16,10.128.0.0/14,127.0.0.1,169.254.169.254,172.30.0.0/16,api-int.sunilc-190243.qe.devcluster.openshift.com,etcd-0.sunilc-190243.qe.devcluster.openshift.com,etcd-1.sunilc-190243.qe.devcluster.openshift.com,etcd-2.sunilc-190243.qe.devcluster.openshift.com,localhost,test.no-proxy.com"                                                              
    }
}

If I then run tcpconnect from bcc-tools on the node, I'm getting this kind of output:
26551  openshift-co 4  10.128.0.33      184.84.75.132    443 
ie some TCP connections are made directly to the https port on 184.84.75.132 rather than going through the http proxy which is using port 3128

It seems some parts of this pod are not using the proxy even if it's set.

Comment 12 Christophe Fergeau 2020-04-24 07:31:54 UTC
For what it's worth, I tested this on 4.4, and I can still reproduce the issue. This is expected as the fix was not backported to 4.4 and is only available in 4.5+.

Comment 13 Gabe Montero 2020-04-24 12:03:19 UTC
Yep, at this time the fix has not been backported to any releases prior to 4.5.
